Ghilotina Traps

About Traps

Traps are used to monitor or reduce the population of insects or other pests. They can be used against crawling, flying insects, mice, rats, cats, dogs, snakes, etc. Depending on the type of action of the trap, there are several classifications:

Glue Traps have a solid stand with baited or non-baited glue as an overlayer. These can be in the form of a tray, made out of wood, plastic, or cardboard. The glue is not toxic or hazardous to the environment or pets. Such traps are ideal for use in households, warehouses, and stores and also in areas where traditional traps cannot be used. They lure the "prey" which gets them trapped in the glue. The lure is often either food based or a sexual attractant (pheromone), or even both.

Mechanical traps are ideal for catching and exterminating rodents, mice, rats, and moles. They can be used repetitively, being more economically viable than the glue ones, as the only thing needed to be changed is the bait, which can be food-based.

Non-back traps are multiple pitfalls for mice, rats, cats, dogs, and traps also called cages. These types of traps capture the pests without hurting them. They are considered friendly mechanical traps since the pests are not hurt. Once caught, they can be released in a remote area out of the home or protected area they have infested. To increase the efficiency of the trap, the bait must be used here as well.
